The podcast envisions a world where no one is judged or limited by their gender — a world free from sexism, gendered violence, and avoidable gendered patterns. It champions genuine equality of opportunity for everyone and argues that the challenges faced by all genders must be addressed together, not in isolation. Expect thoughtful, sometimes challenging conversations that will leave you inspired and hopeful for real progress.

Don't let the name of the podcast fool you...it's a passive-aggressive poke at the way women seem to be viewed by society: expendable objects to be utilized and quite literally ended, if a perpetrator so chooses. That's the message that I get from the lack of action over the entire world, & within our societies to protect women and girls. But it's not just women and girls...it's also marginalized groups & those deemed less. And as you'll come to see, this growing problem is a symptom of misogyny, and ultimately, patriarchy. After all, patriarchy has many faces. If you're anything like me, then you, too, feel it's important to witness the stories where patriarchal values have contributed...or downright caused destruction or even death. To be able to identify patterns of misogyny in our own lives is empowering and can also make us feel more prepared...and here's the thing, as most of you know: the patriarchy hurts us all. We will be discussing crimes that include honor killings, intimate partner violence, war crimes, anti-abortion violence..all things caused by patriarchal societies & misogyny, throught history and up to the present day. My hopes are to educate everyone on what the patterns of misogyny look like in each case, because history has a way of repeating itself. I'm neurodivergent af and am doing this podcast alone. Sometimes episodes are late, but I'm doing my best to get them out every other week! more
